Biography
Hi! I'm Matt and I'm a commissioning editor currently covering the energy and mining industries. I've worked in local and B2B newsrooms since finishing my NCTJ training in 2019. In my current role, I oversee four digital magazines and three websites, as well as coordinating with several teams of writers and analysts. I don't now get to write as much as I'd like, but I've worked hard to develop an approachable, fact-driven writing style. I enjoy learning complicated subjects and introducing readers to them, and apply this attention-to-detail in my subbing and editing work. I follow politics and enjoy writing data-led stories. I enjoy using new ways of spreading information, such as infographics and livestreams, in order to empower those who do not feel part of the news cycle. As a person, I enjoy tech and gaming, swimming and mountain biking, and seeing the funny side.
